Ethyl 2-(ethylsulfanyl)benzoate was prepared by treating bromoethane with potassium carbonate and thiosalicyclic acid. Ethyl 2-(ethylsulfanyl)benzoate was then converted to ethyl 2-(ethylsulfanyl)benzohydrazide. A series of 1-acythiosemicarbazides were then prepared from to ethyl 2-(ethylsulfanyl)benzohydrazide, followed by cyclisation to form 1, 2, 4-triazole derivatives. The structures of intermediates and desired compounds were confirmed by spectroscopic analysis. In vitro DPPH radical scavenging activities of 1, 2, 4-triazole derivatives were studied and will be reported.
